About this product
Violinist Rachel Barton Pine, Inchan exciting, boundary-defying performerInch (Washington Post) known for her Inchbravura technique and soulful musicianshipInch (New York Times), headlines a groundbreaking album of blues-influenced classical works for violin and violin and piano by 20th and 21st century composers of African descent. World-premiere recordings include Noel Da Costa's 'A Set of Dance Tunes for Solo Violin,' based on American fiddle tunes; Daniel Bernhard Roumain's 'Filter,' which conjures the sounds of electronic dance music and psychedelic guitar; Errollyn Wallen's 'Woogie Boogie,' a humorous and inventive reimaging of the boogie woogie blues dance; and Billy Childs's 'Incident,' a single-movement violin sonata / tone poem written as a response to a fatal shooting by police. Another premiere is Wendall Logan's violin and piano arrangement of Duke Ellington's 1935 composition, 'In a Sentimental Mood.' The album's title track, Dolores White's improvisational 'Blues Dialogues,' draws on classical, jazz, and country music, as well as African-American vocalizations and a blues harmonic language. David N. Baker's gospel-tinged 'Blues (Deliver My Soul)' evokes the ecstatic energy of a Black church service. Charles S. Brown's 'A Song Without Words' was inspired by bottleneck guitar player and gospel blues master Blind Willie Johnson. Each movement of William Grant Still's 'Suite for Violin and Piano' evokes the work of a different African-American visual artist. Clarence Cameron White's 'Levee Dance, Op. 26, No. 2,' a favorite of violin virtuoso Jascha Heifetz, surrounds a traditional African-American spiritual with a playful, syncopated dance. Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson's 'Blue/s Forms' and 'Louisiana Blues Strut' befit a composer with a legacy of achievements in the classical, jazz, modern dance, and pop music worlds.

?Clarinetist Anthony McGill and violinist Rachel Barton Pine are featured soloists on a new recording of two concertos composed in response to societal injustices by Syrian composer Malek Jandali, performed by the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra and led by Marin Alsop, a champion of the composer's work. Malek Jandali, called Inchdeeply enigmaticInch by Gramophone, has been praised for writing Inchheart-rending melodies, rich orchestration, clever transitions and creative texturesInch (American Record Guide). His repertoire, which ranges from chamber music to large scale orchestral works, integrates Middle-Eastern modes into Western classical forms and harmony. Rachel Barton Pine, Inchan exciting, boundary-defying performerInch (The Washington Post), performs Jandali's Concerto for Violin and Orchestra (2014), a work that honors Inchall women who thrive with courageInch according to the composer. Jandali's concerto is in recognition of the women of Syria, continuing his aim to preserve the cultural heritage of his homeland. The Violin Concerto incorporates Syrian melodies and idioms into Jandali's Western-inspired harmonies and forms. Jandali calls upon an array of Syrian and Arabic music forms and folk melodies including multiple sama'i and bashraf (instrumental pieces), and longa (dances), from different maqam (modes). He also makes use of the oud (Arabic lute) in his symphonic scoring to infuse the work with the authentic sound and feeling of Syria. A particularly notable sama'i inspired by traditional Syrian folk music from the area along the Silk Road Is used for a InchWomen's Theme.Inch This theme is representative of the folk music that is a source of comfort and healing for unjustly detained, peaceful Syrian activists and other women and mothers living in fear. Jandali's Concerto for Clarinet and Orchestra (2021) is dedicated to it's performer Anthony McGil
